Sony Releases Official PlayStation 4 Specs

Sony is fleshing out the specs of the PlayStation 4 with more detailed information on the system's processor, GPU, and disc drive.

Sony revealed some general specs for the PlayStation 4 during its conference last night, but a new press release from the company sheds a little more light on the system. Here's the rundown, straight from Sony:

During the press conference, Sony also stressed that including 8GB of GDDR5 memory was the number-one request from developers; 8GB provides over 15 times the amount of memory the PS3 has.

It will be a while until we see what developers are capable of doing with the new hardware, but Sony's pledge to make a more developer-friendly console this time around is good news for progammers and gamers alike.
